Trump Administration Seeks to Avoid Withdrawal From Paris Climate Accord, International Climate Officials Say

Trump administration officials said Saturday the U.S. wouldn’t pull out of the Paris Agreement, offering to re-engage in the international deal to fight climate change, according to multiple officials at a global warming summit.

WOWZa. First dining and dealmakiing with Chuck and NAN? Now this? Hell with it, lets go single payer. SHOOT THE WORKS.

How you'all Trump folks doin'? Your loose cannon, is on the poop deck.

 

Interesting that a lot of turn around has come since the exit of Bannon and the hiring of Kelly

 

This is incredible. Another indication that Trump is now leaning left. Wow! Double wow!!

 

I spoke too soon. I think a European official went out on a limb and the White House cut it off.

The White House said Saturday it has not changed its position on the Paris climate accord and will withdraw from the agreement that President Trump has called unfair to the United States unless it can be re-negotiated.

The statement came in response to published reports by the Wall Street Journal and AFP that a top European climate official said the U.S. would “not re-negotiate the Paris Accord, but will try to review the terms on which they could be engaged under this agreement."

The climate official, Miguel Arias Canete, was meeting with ministers from some 30 countries in Montreal on Saturday to push forward on implementing the Paris deal without the U.S.

The White House swiftly denied any change in its stance on the landmark deal.

Bummer.

And just when I thought he was going to appoint an RBG clone to replace Kennedy on the SCOTUS.

 

Nice job. You managed to get what I was drinking to come out my nose!

 

Sounds like fun.

There is a white powder joke in there somewhere.

Yeah, Trump is getting more uproarious by the day.

IT’S ALL SMOKE AND MIRRORS: Germany Will Miss Another Green Goal.

Berlin’s grand green energy transition is falling short of the lofty targets that inspired it. Earlier this month, the think tank Agora Energiewende released a report that projected Germany would fall well short of its goal to cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions—far shorter than was previously believed. Berlin had committed to cutting 40 percent of its GHG emissions by 2020 as compared to 1990 levels, but as that year looms large, the country has achieved a reduction of “just” 28 percent (a remarkable decrease, though nowhere close to the target), and it’s expected to only shave off another 2 or 3 percent over the next few years. Now, a new study from the BEE renewable energy group suggests that the country is going to fall short of its Brussels-set target of sourcing 18 percent of its energy production from renewables by 2020.

 

Republicans were warned that this guy will side with anybody who throws a couple of flattering compliments his way. So we know it's not going to last. But we'll take it while it's there.
